The Challenge: 50 vs. Kanye

I just read where 50 cent has made a bold statement. He stated that if Kanye's album sells more records than his does then he'd quit making solo albums.

Is it a confidence thing or is it a mere fact?

Both are controversal and both can move records. Well, I got my money on Fiddy (50) and here's why:

We all know drama sells records. 50 always has some sort of drama going on when its time to drop his albums. Remember Ja Rule and The Game?

Also, (and I don't agree with this but its the way it is right now) Kanye ain't thug enough. He hasn't sold enough dope, shot enough people, been shot at enough, or slapped enough bitches on his albums.

That being said, let me go ahead and say the BUSINESS of Hiphop music is FUCKED UP! There is no balance.

Off the soapbox Mello! Back to the facts.

One last glaring point is that traditionally, 50 has sold more albums than Kanye. I don't see this one being any different. This may also be a friendly CEO battle as well because at the helm of the 2 labels are Dr. Dre and Jay-Z.

Who do you think will win? Feel free to post your comments.
